Title: Implantable seizure-suppressing device
Inventor: PUTZ DAVID A
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2002-07-15
Abstract: Heat-removal method and apparatus for treatment of movement disorder episodes;  more specifically, a device and method for intracranially suppressing movement disorder episodes upon the detection of physiological symptoms. The device (110) includes a temperature-contact (120) implanted at a targeted portion (114) in the brain (112) which is determined to be associated with such episodes and connection to an implanted heat-transfer operator (123), typically a Peltier cooler or a thermal-electric cooler. Heat transfer from the temperature-contact to the heat-transfer operator cools the targeted portion and suppresses the movement disorder episode. Such heat transfer is performed upon the sensing of symptoms which normally preface episodes. The symptoms can be sensed intracranially by sensing-contacts (230), on the skin by a sensor or person. Alternatively, heat removal (cooling) can be performed without sensing symptoms to prevent episodes when the patient is particularly sensitive to, or in danger from, episodes.

Inventor: PHILLIPS ANDREW
IPC: C01B13/11
Filed: 2004-03-16
Abstract: An electro chemical conversion cell that can break down certain gasses to provide ozone and monovalent oxygen from a supplied volume of a suitable O2-containing gas. The conversion cell is provided with at least one metal mesh electrode within a generator reaction chamber, and a power supply which is adapted to supply a high alternating electric current voltage to at least partially break-down O2 in the input gas to yield ozone.

Patent CA-2465282-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FETKOVICH JOHN E
IPC: G06F21/12
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: A method for controlling access to digital information is performed based on a plurality of decryption keys sent by the information provider. A first type of decryption key instructs (406, 410) a user's host system to reproduce the digital information in accordance with a first level of reproduction quality degradation. Additional keys may specify other degradation levels. The quality of the digital information may be degraded (314, 406, 410) based on a time condition or a use condition. Alternatively, only a portion of the information may be made viewable by a user. In order to obtain full and unrestricted access, the user must obtain a type (310) of decryption key from the provider which removes all previous limitations on reproduction quality degradation.  Preferably, the digital information is sent with a media player application program embedded with an initial decryption key. The program may include tamper-resistant features which provide a safeguard against hackers or other forms of unauthorized access. A business method uses a pricing structure which makes the decryption keys available for different prices.

Patent CA-2479172-A1 (CA)
Title: Suction oil injection for rotary compressor
Inventor: PICOUET JEAN-LOUIS
IPC: F04C29/00
Filed: 2003-03-12
Abstract: An apparatus and system for immediately lubricating a compressor within a compressor system using a suction oil line apparatus. The compressor system comprises a compressor, a power source for operating the compressor, a tank capable of storing oil therein, a conventional oil line, and a suction oil line apparatus. The suction oil line apparatus can comprise a suction oil li ne and a valve. When the power source is actuated, gas is introduced into a suction cavity within the compressor, drawn into a compression chamber withi n the compressor, and compressed. The compressed gas is discharged into a tank thereby elevating a tank pressure. The elevated tank pressure causes the oil within the tank to be transported through the suction oil line. Transportati on of the oil through the suction oil line permits immediate lubrication of the compressor to occur following start-up of the compressor, immediate being fr om about one second to about one minute. Start-up can comprise initiation of th e compressor, movement of components within the compressor, movement of intima te components within the compressor, or actuation of the power source. When the tank pressure reaches a pre-determined pressure, the valve in the suction oi l line is closed. The closed valve results in the oil being prohibited from flowing through the suction oil line and permitted to flow through the conventional oil line. As such, the compressor remains continuously lubricated. Further, immediate lubrication can be accomplished without the need for a back-pressure valve or pump.
